  text: "The volume comprises a variety of research approaches that seek to explore
    and understand employees’ learning and development through and for work. Working
    life reveals challenges through technological, economic and societal development
    that can only rudimentarily be addressed by formal education and training. Workplace
    learning becomes more and more important for employees and enterprises to successfully
    cope with these challenges.\r\nWorkplace learning is a steadily growing field
    of educational research but it lacks so far a scholastic canon – there is rather
    a diversity of research approaches. This volume reflects this diversity by bringing
    together researchers from different countries and different theoretical backgrounds,
    presenting their current research on topics that all are relevant for understanding
    presages, processes and outcomes of workplace learning. Hence, this volume is
    of relevance for researchers as well as practitioners in the field and policy
    makers."

  text: This chapter presents a discussion of the concept of agency. Agency is understood
    as a multifaceted construct describing the idea that human beings make choices,
    act on these choices, and thereby exercise influence on their own lives as well
    as their environment. We argue that the concept is discussed from three different
    perspectives in the literature—transformational, dispositional, and relational—that
    are each related to learning and development in work contexts. These perspectives
    do not reflect incompatible positions but rather different aspects of the same
    phenomena. The chapter also offers an avenue of insight into empirical studies
    that employ agency as a central concept as well as discussions about concepts
    that closely overlap with ideas of human beings as agents of power and influence.

  text: The article explores the particular quality of changes introduced through
    the latest wave of digital transformation of workplaces. It has effects on workflow
    processes, on distribution of work and tasks, and the mode of distributing working
    tasks, e.g. through cyber-physical systems. Hence, the changes in work are manifold
    and require changes in vocational education and training as well as in workplace
    learning. These changes reveal new challenges for research on workplace learning.
    Finally, conclusions for future workplace learning research will be developed.
